Two words – Authenticity and Alignment. Does the person align with the company values and culture? Are you being authentic during the interview process, and are you able to tell if he/she is being genuine? Ask questions that are not related to the role itself and focus on finding out more about the person and how they operate. Do they work well under pressure or a constantly changing environment or do they need structure and hierarchy? Why do they get out of bed in the morning? What motivates them? Understanding these elements will help with ensuring the best fit. To get started, make sure you also have an ideal profile set to help with matching!
